My 20 year old son wears these shoes and I buy these shoes every year for my elderly father and father in law to wear as slippers. They have incredible support, we are soft, great grip and very good foot stability. They both wear them every day and "sneak" out of the house with them as quickly as possible until their wife arrests them. I recommend them for all ages and all purposes. They will last a whole year for my father. Great Quality, Please Keep Going Globe!
